How To
How to join wooden boards without using nails
Woodworking is a hobby that many people enjoy doing. Woodworking is a relaxing hobby that allows you to use your hands to create useful things from wood. You might want to join two pieces from the same wood, but you don't need to use nails. This article will demonstrate how to do so to preserve the beauty of your woodwork.
First, remove any sharp edges from the wood pieces before you join them. You don't want any sharp corners to cause problems later. Now you can start gluing the boards together.
If you are working on hardwood, you should only use glue on one side. If you are using softwoods such pine or cedar, glue should only be applied to one side. Press the boards down until the glue is fully incorporated. Before you proceed to the next step, be sure to let the glue dry completely.
After you've glued your boards, you'll want to drill holes into the joints where you plan to insert screws. These holes will differ depending on the type and size of screw you are using. If you are going to use a half-inch wood screw, you will need to drill at least 3/4 inch deep.
Once you have drilled your holes you will need to drive the screws through each joint and into the backside. Be careful not to hit the front surface of the board, or else you'll ruin the finish. Try to not hit the ends of the screws when driving the screws. This will avoid splitting in the wood's ends grain.
You'll need to protect your completed project from the elements. You can seal the furniture pieces or cover the top. You'll want a product that lasts for many years. Some examples include oil-based varnishes, polyurethane, shellac, lacquer, etc.
These products can be found in most home improvement shops. Be sure to choose the right one for your project. Don't forget to keep in mind that some finishes are toxic. When handling certain finishes, wear protective gear.
